Congressional Elections
This article is about congress and its role in making laws. It talks about the difference between parliamentary system and the American system. Presidents and legislators are elected separately and have their own separate election process. When a president wants to make a law he must have it approved by congress before he can sign it. Both the house and the senate have equal powers but their form of election is what makes them different. The American Founders wanted the House Representatives to close to the public. This is the reason why the house is large so that it can accommodate its many members and have two year elections. Every member of the house has a sole representative that was chosen by popular vote. Each state has at least one house seat maybe more depending on the population of that state. In the past during congressional elections people will tend to vote on the parties that that representative is in. Today people look for the individual qualities and performance and diminished the party loyalty. Since the 1960’s national elections have changed and today with media and the importance of aggressive voting candidates have made voter more aware of them. Not as a candidate but as an individual that the public would like to represent them.
